Such a clock would be "regularly irregular" in medical jargon. You could put it in a cardiologist's waiting room where patients with rhythm disorders are waiting but it might upset them :-)

I would love to put one of these up on a doctor's patient waiting room wall just to see what people's reactions are. ********************* _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
